Metal dissolution from atmospheric aerosol deposition to the oceans is important in
enhancing and inhibiting phytoplankton growth rates and modifying plankton community …

Biological N2 fixation is an important part of the marine nitrogen cycle as it provides a source
of new nitrogen that can support biological carbon export and sequestration. Research in …

Marine diazotrophs convert dinitrogen (N 2) gas into bioavailable nitrogen (N), supporting
life in the global ocean. In 2012, the first version of the global oceanic diazotroph database …

Marine N 2 fixing microorganisms, termed diazotrophs, are a key functional group in marine
pelagic ecosystems. The biological fixation of dinitrogen (N 2) to bioavailable nitrogen …

Biological nitrogen fixation contributes significantly to marine primary productivity. The
current view depicts few cyanobacterial diazotrophs as the main marine nitrogen fixers …

Nitrogen fixation has a critical role in marine primary production, yet our understanding of
marine nitrogen-fixers (diazotrophs) is hindered by limited observations. Here, we report a …

Growth of the prominent nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium is often limited by
phosphorus availability in the ocean. How nitrogen fixation by phosphorus-limited …

Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs), occurring at depths of 30 to over 150m, represents
the deep continuum of adjacent shallow coral reefs about which little is known. These reefs …

Cyanobacteria are thought to be the main N2-fixing organisms (diazotrophs) in marine
pelagic waters, but recent molecular analyses indicate that non-cyanobacterial diazotrophs …

Oceanic subtropical gyres are considered biological deserts because of the extremely low
availability of nutrients and thus minimum productivities. The major source of nutrient …
